The 27 Club occupies 27 York St in Ottawa's ByWard Market, formerly the long-running Zaphods. It kept the industrial bones — exposed ceilings, hanging lights, LED rigs — and a large dance floor while pivoting to a broader mix of live acts and themed DJ nights. The crowd skews alternative: emo nights, indie sleaze parties, and rock-adjacent events sit alongside hip-hop and electronic bookings.
Expect a mid-size club with an industrial feel, a proper dance floor, and a rotating calendar of themed nights and live shows. Cover is cheap ($5–$7), the bar is cash-only so bring bills, and the room draws a casually dressed but music-focused crowd. Open until 2am Thursday through Saturday, 19+ only.
